Our approach focuses on the rights of individuals and communities to human security in conflicts and emergencies. We work at reducing communities vulnerability, while reinforcing or developing their capacities to protect themselves against disasters, as well as getting the state to take appropriate measures and invest accordingly, to reduce the damages that disasters can cause.
